Cecilia was diagnosed with a cleft palate needing repair in June. The surgeon at Saint Elizabeth Hospital recommended cataract surgery, and She is scheduled for September. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,650, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $1,250 short. my daughter has been in and out of Saint Elizabeth Hospital since June. The doctors say a cleft palate needing repair will get worse without cataract surgery. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,650 is more than we can find. While we wait, Cecilia struggles with daily life and can't lift anything heavy. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 10 weeks. During that time Cecilia won't be able to lift anything heavy, so the costs keep growing. The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did. Where the $1,250 goes: • Hospital stay (4 nights): $280 • Pre-operative tests and imaging: $45 • Physiotherapy sessions: $125 • Post-operative medication: $60 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $740 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Angelica
